Ce superbe roman graphique du fondateur du Studio Ghibli est une merveilleuse capsule temporelle. On y retrouve tous les thèmes essentiels de l’œuvre du maître : le voyage, l’écologie, le respect de la nature et de l’humanité, l’entraide, l’indépendance des personnages féminins, le graphisme somptueux, etc. Il est facile d’y retrouver des échos de Nausicaä ou de Princesse Mononoke, mais Le Voyage de Shuna n’est pas non plus un brouillon ayant permis la création des dessins animés qui ont fait la renommée de l’auteur. C’est une œuvre aboutie à part entière, qui peut se lire à plusieurs niveaux et à tous les âges, et dont le texte minimal fait la part belle aux aquarelles magnifiques et aux émotions des personnages.

Incredible! Like any Hayao Miyazaki production this one was full with brave, young characters, lush scenery, fantastical elements, and some very Ghibli-esque sparks. You can tell how much of this story has bled into other works, perhaps influencing each other. And it's inspired by a Tibetian folk story? Fantastic.
I would definitely read the follow up, of Shuna's journey back home to his village. I would love an animation, too. How beautiful it would be.
